Dozens of illegal immigrants shielded by New York City’s sanctuary policy this year have already gone on to be arrested for still other crimes including drug and theft, the federal government said Friday, looking to pressure the city to change.
U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement flagged more than 440 people in New York’s jails as deportation targets from January to April. But city officials would only hold those the mayor’s office deemed to have committed egregious crimes, ICE said, meaning dozens were shielded from deportation and set free.
Of those, “hundreds” were released and 40 have already been arrested for new crimes, said ICE, a branch of Homeland Security.
Among them is a 43-year-old Chinese man who was arrested in March for a drug offense, released back into the community then arrested for another felony drug charge a month later. A 28-year-old Salvadoran man arrested in March for assault was released, and a month later he was also back behind bars for a robbery arrest.
“Simply put, the politics and rhetoric in this city are putting its own communities at an unnecessary risk,” said Scott Mechowski, acting field office director for ICE’s deportation office in New York.

Will any New York paper print this?
>>Ongoing catch and release due to de Blasio.<<
I would never in a million years wish that one of his beloved MS-13 illegals released back into the community hurt/maim de blasio or one of his family.
Never.
Good point, I seriously doubt they will.

New York City wants to be a Mexican colony like California.
It’s difficult for me to work up much sympathy for the denizens of NYC when they vote overwhelmingly for this, what with 90% voting for Clinton and another huge percentage voting for De Blasio. They should get what they vote for, good and hard.
That is those who actually vote. The turn out is so pathetic. People just don't care and deserve what they get. NJ got a clone of Corzine (Phil Murphy), who vowed to raise taxes, turn NJ even more sanctuary of aliens and legalize pot. Most did not even bother to vote nor even know who he is.
WAIT WAIT there’s a republican running against the gov scumcuomo, oh you haven’t heard? neither did anyone else
Go ahead and release them, but issue the police a shoot-to-kill authorization on each and every one for the next offense.
The New York Post probably will. They rightfully dog DeBlasio on every stupid decision he makes, which is a lot. Even Liberal Gov. Cuomo steps on DeBlasio every chance he gets.
Usable link, Washtimes wants you to pay to read their crap.

You lost me with your post.
The Washington Times has never announced to me that they want to charge to read their articles nor do they have a problem with using ad blockers.
Have you confused them with Washington Post?
Bkmrk
I use AD blocker. So lots of pages won’t come up with out paying to view. I just go around it. I don’t need their stupid ads or cookies.
